What this means for Dean
Borderline D1 Mid-Major recruit — D1 Mid-Major ceiling.
Recruiting window is active. Your Current (725) is just 25 points below the D1 Mid-Major threshold — effectively a D1 Mid-Major caliber recruit for evaluation purposes. Your optimistic ceiling projects to D1 Mid-Major territory through college junior year. The modest gap between Current and Ceiling reflects college-years upside coaches should weigh in their evaluation — particularly if biological maturation is still ongoing.
Maturity context: The D2/D3 Realistic → D1 Mid-Major ceiling-range transition is the late-developer story: data signal alone doesn't flag it, but the spread between conservative and optimistic ceilings suggests biological development may not yet be complete. (We're working on a parent-input layer to refine this — see methodology §4.7.)
What time drops unlock D1 Mid-Major
Each row shows the time required in that event alone to push SR Rating Current from 725 to 750, holding the other three events fixed. Only physiologically reachable drops (≤15% per event) are shown. In practice swimmers improve across multiple events at once, so real progress will lift faster than these single-event deltas suggest.
